Jason Phillips carted off at Eagles practice

The Eagles lost wide receiver Jeremy Maclin for the season over the weekend and they kicked off this week’s set of practices by watching another member of the team get carted off the field.

Several writers in attendance at Eagles practice sent out word that linebacker Jason Phillips needed to be helped off the field by trainers after suffering an injury to his right leg before being put on a cart for a trip back to the locker room. Bart Hubbuch of the New York Postsnapped a picture of Phillips as he left the field to get medical attention and Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer adds that Phillips threw his helmet to the ground while shouting some “choice words” during the evaluation.

Phillips signed with the Eagles as a free agent after spending the last two years with the Panthers, for whom he played all 16 games and started twice last year. He started his career as a fifth-round pick of the Ravens in 2009 and played four games for Baltimore as a rookie.

He was slated to be a major part of the special teams units in 2013, but the results of tests on his leg may force the Eagles to look elsewhere for someone to fill that role.

I love it, the Eagles are all but conceding the division to the G-Men…, while Run and Shoot Chipper is tinkering around with his gimmick Read / Option and has no clue who his QB is going to be, the G-Men are just souping up the engine, en route to HOME SB VICTORY!

Chipper make up your mind on a QB apparently its getting to your team. That’s 2 down in 3 days. At that rate you won’t have a team left.

Stop pretending that you are truly that naïve, while Eli has taken home 2 Lombardi crowns and SB MVP’s, what has ANY grounded Eagles QB done – answer NOTHING!

And laxman1944 –

Really, are you honestly that blind to see that we have the best receiving corp in the division, perhaps the league, and that our backfield is as good as anyone else’s? If the D can tighten up just a bit we are on cruise control to a Home SB!

Someone walked underneath a ladder or something.
Maybe it’s the ghosts of those Vick Dogs – their way of vengeance is just jinxing the eagles – get rid of vick, bam – ACLs won’t be torn or …idk, this comment became dumb.
